Tight at the Top

Lots to talk about from last week’s session. Adam came top closely followed by Big Red. Only 2 points separating them on the day. It looks like Adam’s got his mojo back and Big Red continues his run of good form. 

Dean’s bike had a great session. Ridden by Mark it came in an impressive 3rd position. The best result for Dean’s bike since the start of the season. It just goes to show that its not the bike but the rider that makes the difference. Well done Mark, only your second session at bike polo and another good showing with some cracking goals and great moves.

Young Jack was on fire last week. That wasn’t because we had set fire to him or he had been playing with matches. He actually played very well. For at least three quarters of the session that is. Jack has the attention span of a goldfish. Once round the polo court etc... Come on Jack, you’re improving every week. Lets see another good performance from you today.

Bryan had a good session too. I can’t remember seeing him falling off at all. There was a lot of shouting of “Foot Down” but no I don’t think I saw him fall off.

Mr Roger and Young Mr Roger (aka Luke) both put in a fine performance. Young Luke made his first appearance in the summer league last week. A bike polo regular, Luke has missed most of the season due to that there education stuff. Exams and whatever. He soon got back into it though and showed put in a very good performance.

Looks like there are only two players I have not mentioned yet. Saving the best to last. Kol and Nick came in 8th and 9th place. Only 9 people played so that means that Nick came last and Kol came second to last. Can you believe it. I spent two hours re-inputting the results into the spreadsheet and double checking all the formulas but still I ended up with the same result. A disastrous result for Nick whose ranking drops from 1st to 3rd. Kol dropped from 3rd to 7th. Good news for Big Red who moves up into the #1 ranking spot.

The top of the league has got interesting too. Nick is still top on 117 points but Big Red is close behind on 115 points. Another good session from Big Red today could see him top in both the league and the ranking.
